A planning brief is a document which summarises the planning authority's guidelines and requirements for the development of a particular site or collection of sites. A planning brief is generally produced for sites of a significant size or for particularly sensitive sites which require more detailed guidance. They can also perform a number of functions such as promoting a site for development, interpreting and supplementing development plan policies, or addressing a particular site constraint or opportunity.

The Council’s long-term vision is to ensure the Barnet’s parks are fit for the future through the development of key sites across the Borough. Masterplan proposals are being drawn up outlining the delivery of ambitious improvements, including sports hubs and supporting facilities.
